Road Trip

The country, people, and the village,
All equal, as if, for the first time,

Nay, 'tis but a relative vantage.
Save fresh road, to its left bears a sign.

The forest had enjoyed a magical transformation.
Dusk had ushered in the firefly brigade.
They lit up the pond area like tiny LED lights.
I could see they were excitedly motioning to the faeries.

Prelude: A BRIDE SET FREE

How romantic, the fall, so far above the pleading waves.
The heights, the depth, to look the deep in eye and weep.
Air space between the lovers’ arc and shallow graves.
The tangible singsong...

As the end was drawing near
Buns and weenies waving
As Fans swilled down their beer

As Macy went to bat 
And while walking to the plate

By the time the fever set in,
The leaves had already turned,
Turned that is, into the colors,
Already there beforehand.

Of nipple spring,
June’s coy leafy gaze,
The muscular lust of summer grazing,
When Burgundy picnics,
Turn white, thick...

you do these kinds of things
can't be helped
imagination Band Aids some call them

I know
you just do
fingers wrapped ‘round cold steel
it's then
it's now
differences slight

like playing marbles
tripod-cradled taws and steelies
"Bombers" "Pots"
"shooters" all
aim straight

Muscles locked in agony
Every ligament burning 
Pain flooding nerve endings
Labor
Heavy panting of breath
Heart pumping trying to keep up

Behind the canopy of human perception 
Life and Death dance
  
On her knees pushing
Two women holding her

A lifeless corps dragging his feet through the dirt, 
the wet sludge sloshing through his toe’s,
He lifts his head and looks to the people running past in a blur,

condensed tears spoke louder than thundering words

tore apart the bevelled edges and smeared her grin

Le Squirrel Sat For Le Painter

His canvass set
And oils based,
He zeroed onto her providence.

Her eyes dismissing his.
Although,
Him noting her dark chocolates,
Sweet looking,
Cloaked as balls of fire,
And...
